InventoryLedgerStructure

Roster of responsibilities owned by named actors.

Open in Playground

Use to show 'who owns what' across a process, scoring policy, or org chart. Two-column layout: actor on left, responsibilities on right.

When to use

  • Who owns what. Each row pairs a named actor with the slice of work they own. Use when the audience needs to know accountability, not process flow.
  • Three to six actors. The ledger reads cleanly up to about six rows. Past that, split the roster across two slides or roll up adjacent roles.
  • One-line responsibilities. Each actor's body is a short responsibility summary, not a job description. Detail belongs on a follow-up slide or in an appendix.

When not to use

  • Process sequence. If the rows describe stages in order, use list-steps or process-flow. actors is for parallel ownership, not handoff sequence.
  • Long per-actor prose. More than one sentence per row crowds the ledger. Move the detail to a dedicated slide and keep actors as the index.
  • Roles without names. If the labels are job titles in the abstract ("the engineer"), reach for cards-stack or list. The actors layout earns its weight when the names are named.

Common mistakes

  • Putting the actor name as the first word of the row instead of a trailing inline-code chip. The row reads responsibility-then-actor: the label leads (auto-bold), and the actor name must be a TRAILING, direct-child inline-code chip on the same line — - Owns the first part \First actor\`` — not the other way around, or it won't render as the right-aligned pill.

Authoring
